#StarlightExpress

----

As a child’s train set magically comes to life and the engines race to become the fastest in the world, Rusty the steam train has little hope of winning until he is inspired by the legend of the ‘Starlight Express’. Seen around the world by over 20 million people, STARLIGHT EXPRESS is an electrifying experience for all ages.

I have this song as my current earworm 😂 Saw the show last week and loved it. I also met Jayden who plays Hydra and he was fab to chat with, along with other cast members I met too. I wanna see it again!!

I cannot wait for the full cast recording comes out, because I have literally been listening to the older versions of the show's cast recordings and like every song is just beautiful and I cannot wait to hear this new version especially ESPECIALLY the songs "pumping iron" and "rolling stock". Lol

Sometimes I forget that this is from a musical about humanoid trains on roller skates, I can easily see this being played in third grade classes to teach students about pollution... this sounds too good to be an ALW song...

For those that didn't know, IT'S ON SPOTIFY!!!

It´s not a matter of if, it´s a matter of when... WHEN are you going to film the Sunset Boulevard movie with Glenn Close? We are tired of waiting and asking every day: WHEN?

I just want to take the time to say something. When I first saw Hydra on stage singing this new song, I honestly thought he was in the role of C.B. due to the whiplash from Freight to this song as well as his lack of concern with Momma. But when act 2 came around, it turned out Slick was in C.B.’s role. This left Hydra in Dustin’s role, revealing to Rusty and the audience that Hydrogen _is_ steam. I looked it up even more to learn that Hydrogen is eco-friendly. This shows that Andrew Lloyd Webber and the crew were aware of times changing so they made the fuel car characters in place of the Freight cars and included Hydra the Hydrogen car in it. Steam trains may not be clean, but that doesn’t mean they should be thrown away. All they need is a new fuel. I just want to thank Andrew Lloyd Webber and Joe Stilgoe for making this song and I want to thank Jaydon Vijn for playing my new favourite Starlight Express character.
